When taking the photos used in this picture, we learnt how to use a DSLR camera. We learnt all the different modes that are available to use for specific looks on a photo. For example, if we wanted a close-up of an image, we used the flower (close-up) mode to do so, allowing the detail to be much clearer. We also learnt that to change the shutter speed (determines if it shows blur when an action is being made), we turned a dial at the top of the camera.
In order to edit these images together, we used Photoshop. To make this, I imported the image of my school's logo at the top corner to make the advert seem more real. I then added text, found a fitting font, chose the correct colour by using the colour picking tool on the logo to make the advert have a fitting colour palette. To make the circular images, I used the brush tool for a dot and used a clipping layer on my picture over the dot to make it a circular shape. After that, I used outer-stroke for the coloured rings around it.
As it is a school advert, I wanted to display the positive and community based aspects of the school (aka. a large painting on one of our buildings, working, and food). I used an image of myself working in the sixth form block in front of our food and drinks section as it would appeal to the sixth formers who are looking to find a good sixth form and I ensured I was working also to show the dedication of the students. To show the community and creativity that the school possesses I used a picture of the large painting on our windows on our tech block.
